Due to the firmware allocating the BAID, we can only install
the data structure after the BAID is valid from the firmware's
point of view. As a result, the firmware can start sending
frame release notifications to the driver immediately. This
isn't supposed to happen by protocol, since the peer STA is
not expected to use the blockack session until the AddBA has
a response. However, firmware doesn't know that, our RX path
can't know when it was, so simply don't WARN in this case but
only have a debug message.
Since the BAID comes from firmware, also use IWL_FW_CHECK()
instead of a warning for the validity check.

net: sysctl: avoid using current->nsproxy
As pointed out by Al Viro and Eric Dumazet in [1], using the 'net'
structure via 'current' is not recommended for different reasons:
- Inconsistency: getting info from the reader's/writer's netns vs only
from the opener's netns as it is usually done. This could cause
unexpected issues when other operations are done on the wrong netns.
- current->nsproxy can be NULL in some cases, resulting in an 'Oops'
(null-ptr-deref), e.g. when the current task is exiting, as spotted by
syzbot [1] using acct(2).
The 'net' or 'pernet' structure can be obtained from the table->data
using container_of().
Note that table->data could also be used directly in more places, but
that would increase the size of this fix to replace all accesses via
'net'. Probably best to avoid that for fixes.
Patches 2-9 remove access of net via current->nsproxy in sysfs handlers
in MPTCP, SCTP and RDS. There are multiple patches doing almost the same
thing, but the reason is to ease the backports.
Patch 1 is not directly linked to this, but it is a small fix for MPTCP
available_schedulers sysctl knob to explicitly mark it as read-only.
Please note that this series does not address Al's comment [2]. In SCTP,
some sysctl knobs set other sysfs-exposed variables for the min/max: two
processes could then write two linked values at the same time, resulting
in new values being outside the new boundaries. It would be great if
SCTP developers can look at this problem.

As mentioned in a previous commit of this series, using the 'net'
structure via 'current' is not recommended for different reasons:
- Inconsistency: getting info from the reader's/writer's netns vs only
from the opener's netns.
- current->nsproxy can be NULL in some cases, resulting in an 'Oops'
(null-ptr-deref), e.g. when the current task is exiting, as spotted by
syzbot [1] using acct(2).
The 'net' structure can be obtained from the table->data using
container_of().
Note that table->data could also be used directly, as this is the only

mptcp: sysctl: sched: avoid using current->nsproxy
Using the 'net' structure via 'current' is not recommended for different
reasons.
First, if the goal is to use it to read or write per-netns data, this is
inconsistent with how the "generic" sysctl entries are doing: directly
by only using pointers set to the table entry, e.g. table->data. Linked
to that, the per-netns data should always be obtained from the table
linked to the netns it had been created for, which may not coincide with
the reader's or writer's netns.
Another reason is that access to current->nsproxy->netns can oops if
attempted when current->nsproxy had been dropped when the current task
is exiting. This is what syzbot found, when using acct(2):

Here with 'net.mptcp.scheduler', the 'net' structure is not really
needed, because the table->data already has a pointer to the current
scheduler, the only thing needed from the per-netns data.
Simply use 'data', instead of getting (most of the time) the same thing,
but from a longer and indirect way.

net: stmmac: dwmac-tegra: Read iommu stream id from device tree
Nvidia's Tegra MGBE controllers require the IOMMU "Stream ID" (SID) to be
written to the MGBE_WRAP_AXI_ASID0_CTRL register.
The current driver is hard coded to use MGBE0's SID for all controllers.
This causes softirq time outs and kernel panics when using controllers
other than MGBE0.
Example dmesg errors when an ethernet cable is connected to MGBE1:
This bug has existed since the dwmac-tegra driver was added in Dec 2022
(See Fixes tag below for commit hash).
The Tegra234 SOC has 4 MGBE controllers, however Nvidia's Developer Kit
only uses MGBE0 which is why the bug was not found previously. Connect Tech
has many products that use 2 (or more) MGBE controllers.
The solution is to read the controller's SID from the existing "iommus"
device tree property. The 2nd field of the "iommus" device tree property
is the controller's SID.
Device tree snippet from tegra234.dtsi showing MGBE1's "iommus" property:
Nvidia's arm-smmu driver reads the "iommus" property and stores the SID in
the MGBE device's "fwspec" struct. The dwmac-tegra driver can access the
SID using the tegra_dev_iommu_get_stream_id() helper function found in
linux/iommu.h.
Calling tegra_dev_iommu_get_stream_id() should not fail unless the "iommus"
property is removed from the device tree or the IOMMU is disabled.
While the Tegra234 SOC technically supports bypassing the IOMMU, it is not
supported by the current firmware, has not been tested and not recommended.
More detailed discussion with Thierry Reding from Nvidia linked below.
Even though we fixed a logic error in the commit cited below, syzbot
still managed to trigger an underflow of the per-host bulk flow
counters, leading to an out of bounds memory access.
To avoid any such logic errors causing out of bounds memory accesses,
this commit factors out all accesses to the per-host bulk flow counters
to a series of helpers that perform bounds-checking before any
increments and decrements. This also has the benefit of improving
readability by moving the conditional checks for the flow mode into
these helpers, instead of having them spread out throughout the
code (which was the cause of the original logic error).
As part of this change, the flow quantum calculation is consolidated
into a helper function, which means that the dithering applied to the
ost load scaling is now applied both in the DRR rotation and when a
sparse flow's quantum is first initiated. The only user-visible effect
of this is that the maximum packet size that can be sent while a flow
stays sparse will now vary with +/- one byte in some cases. This should
not make a noticeable difference in practice, and thus it's not worth
complicating the code to preserve the old behaviour.

net: make sure we retain NAPI ordering on netdev->napi_list
I promised Eric to remove the rtnl protection of the NAPI list,
when I sat down to implement it over the break I realized that
the recently added NAPI ID retention will break the list ordering
assumption we have in netlink dump. The ordering used to happen
"naturally", because we'd always add NAPIs that the head of the
list, and assign a new monotonically increasing ID.
Before the first patch of this series we'd still only add at
the head of the list but now the newly added NAPI may inherit
from its config an ID lower than something else already on the list.
The fix is in the first patch, the rest is netdevsim churn to test it.
I'm posting this for net-next, because AFAICT the problem can't
be triggered in net, given the very limited queue API adoption.
v2:
- [patch 2] allocate the array with kcalloc() instead of kvcalloc()
- [patch 2] set GFP_KERNEL_ACCOUNT when allocating queues
- [patch 6] don't null-check page pool before page_pool_destroy()
- [patch 6] controled -> controlled
- [patch 7] change mode to 0200
- [patch 7] reorder removal to be inverse of add

net: make sure we retain NAPI ordering on netdev->napi_list
Netlink code depends on NAPI instances being sorted by ID on
the netdev list for dump continuation. We need to be able to
find the position on the list where we left off if dump does
not fit in a single skb, and in the meantime NAPI instances
can come and go.
This was trivially true when we were assigning a new ID to every
new NAPI instance. Since we added the NAPI config API, we try
to retain the ID previously used for the same queue, but still
add the new NAPI instance at the start of the list.
This is fine if we reset the entire netdev and all NAPIs get
removed and added back. If driver replaces a NAPI instance
during an operation like DEVMEM queue reset, or recreates
a subset of NAPI instances in other ways we may end up with
broken ordering, and therefore Netlink dumps with either
missing or duplicated entries.
At this stage the problem is theoretical. Only two drivers
support queue API, bnxt and gve. gve recreates NAPIs during
queue reset, but it doesn't support NAPI config.
bnxt supports NAPI config but doesn't recreate instances
during reset.
We need to save the ID in the config as soon as it is assigned
because otherwise the new NAPI will not know what ID it will
get at enable time, at the time it is being added.

to the same value than the network header, defeating this check
in receive paths.
Pretending the transport and network headers are the same
is usually wrong.
This patch removes this reset for CONFIG_DEBUG_NET=y builds
to let fuzzers and CI find bugs.

dt-bindings: net: Correct indentation and style in DTS example
DTS example in the bindings should be indented with 2- or 4-spaces and
aligned with opening '- |', so correct any differences like 3-spaces or
mixtures 2- and 4-spaces in one binding.
No functional changes here, but saves some comments during reviews of
new patches built on existing code.

This change introduces a mechanism for notifying userspace
applications about changes to IPv6 anycast addresses via netlink. It
includes:
* Addition and deletion of IPv6 anycast addresses are reported using
RTM_NEWANYCAST and RTM_DELANYCAST.
* A new netlink group (RTNLGRP_IPV6_ACADDR) for subscribing to these
notifications.
This enables user space applications(e.g. ip monitor) to efficiently
track anycast addresses through netlink messages, improving metrics
collection and system monitoring. It also unlocks the potential for
advanced anycast management in user space, such as hardware offload
control and fine grained network control.

net/mlx5: use do_aux_work for PHC overflow checks
The overflow_work is using system wq to do overflow checks and updates
for PHC device timecounter, which might be overhelmed by other tasks.
But there is dedicated kthread in PTP subsystem designed for such
things. This patch changes the work queue to proper align with PTP
subsystem and to avoid overloading system work queue.
The adjfine() function acts the same way as overflow check worker,
we can postpone ptp aux worker till the next overflow period after
adjfine() was called.
